So, I’ve been messing around with crystals lately, trying to figure out what’s what and how they might help me chill out a bit. Today, I started digging into onyx and obsidian. I mean, they both look kinda cool and mysterious, right? But apparently, they’ve got different vibes when it comes to spiritual stuff.
First off, I grabbed my notebook and started jotting down what I already knew, which, honestly, wasn’t much. I just knew they were both dark stones, and I’d seen them used in jewelry and stuff. Then I hit up the internet. Oh boy, there’s a ton of info out there. I spent a good chunk of the morning just reading through websites, trying to make sense of it all.
From what I gathered, onyx is all about grounding and protection. I read that it can help you feel more stable and secure, which, let’s be real, who couldn’t use a bit more of that? I decided to carry a piece of onyx with me for the day. I just tucked it into my pocket and went about my usual routine.
My Experience with Obsidian
Next up, I tackled obsidian. This one’s supposed to be more intense. I read that it’s like a mirror to your soul, showing you the good, the bad, and the ugly. It’s also said to be super powerful for releasing negativity. I’ll admit, I was a bit nervous about this one. But I figured, what the heck, let’s give it a shot.
I found a quiet spot in my house, lit a candle, and held the obsidian in my hand. I closed my eyes and just tried to focus on my breath. At first, nothing really happened. But then, I started to feel this weird energy, like a tingling sensation in my hand. It wasn’t bad, just… different. I kept meditating for a while, and it felt like some old emotional baggage was starting to lift. It was kinda intense, but also kinda cool.
- Onyx: Felt grounding, like I could handle whatever came my way.
- Obsidian: More intense, like it was digging deep into my soul, but in a good way.
So, that’s where I’m at with onyx and obsidian. It’s all pretty new to me, but I’m definitely intrigued. I think I’ll keep experimenting with them and see how they can help me on my spiritual journey. Who knows, maybe there’s something to this whole crystal thing after all. It’s been a wild ride so far, and I’m excited to see where it takes me next.
